Bug Description

xubuntu still pulls in Python2 via the python-gtk2-dev b-d in libappindicator. We don't want to have Python2 anymore in seeds and images. So either xubuntu should stop using libappindicator, or libappindicator should provide Python3 packages.

Hey @doko,

From what I can tell, we're not shipping libappindicator at all in focal. Can you elaborate where this is coming from?

Thanks. jbicha referred to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libappindicator/+bug/1740637 and mentioned that the python2 support is going to be dropped from libappindicator, so this should no longer be an issue for Xubuntu. Thanks for bringing it to my attention!
